Afamasaga looks the goods...
Tsoulos is a great prospect....

Armit has shown little thus far, but has done some good things....

Well my vote goes to Tsolous, he has impressed me greatly so far this season, big mobile and can throw a good offload. I rate him in the top 10 best young fowards running around in the nrl

I agree MPE, Tsoulous has been great for us this year.
I also rate Big Jack, he looks promising, runs hard and fast and gives his all.
I thought Anderson went alright to say it was his first few games in the top grade, he's only 17, got plenty of time yet.
Armit has shown promise before, he's been pretty quiet this year though, but he's definetally got talent.

I actually think Mateo will be our next big thing. Have seen him play on a number of occasions and I can't believe how hard he is to bring down. He never dies in the tackle, has a great offload and doesn't mind doing the hard yards. Reckon he will be a superstar at the back of the scrum in the not too distant future.

I vote for witty. I think once he is in the top grade consistently and can get a combination going with one player (not a different one every week) in the halves he will really start to shine. :D

Concur on Mateo, he is quality.

Also like to add Ben Smith, Matt Lantry, Josh Cordoba and Jim Curtis

All of these guys have a lot of potential. Josh Cordoba would be my pick though.

Brett Anderson from what I've seen, but I haven't seen Tim Smith

Yeah I thought Mateo, too, but he wasn't there so I picked Jack.

I'm also a big fan of Joel Reddy and Matt Grushka, and considering we have no stand-out three-quarters I'm surprised they haven't got a run yet.

Tsoulos I reckon. He's been great this year, some of his runs very dynamic. If he keeps it up he'll be a great player.

From what I've seen in first grade, definately Zorba. I'm very excited about him. He has a long, successful future ahead of him. Lets not forget he already is an International, making his debut last year for Greece against Italy.

I went for Tim Smith

The others mentioned will all be very good players but with the expection of Mateo none of the others have that little be extra that separates the very very good players from the great players
